Hello folks,

I really like the old, awkward slimline cases of the mid-90s Dell Optiplex machines. One of my retro machines is such a socket 5 based Dell Optiplex GL. It is really a wonderful machine I bought back in 2003.

Therefore, I'm currently looking for a socket 8 machine, an Optiplex Pro 150n/180n/200n of the same era with a similar desktop case for a superior vintage computing experience.

Does anyone know where to find such a system or - better - does own one that he wants to sell?

Thanks.

Sorry folks, I made a mistake.
The system that I'm looking for is the Dimension XPS Pro 150/180/200n.

This type of system has the awkward desktop case.
The Optiplex GXpro that I mentioned before has the newer case.

I would also appreciate offerings of single parts of such a machine (case, mobo, etc).
It wouldn't be the first Dell machine that I assemble from scratch.
